My daughter and I had the most relaxing, peaceful and enjoyable trip round the harbour. Ruth and all the crew were wonderful., My daughter works in construction so loved sailing under the Sydney Harbour Bridge to view its structure from below. Great being on an original sail vessel.

We had a lovely relaxed evening. It was great to get a very personal style of tour. Less patrons created a wonderful experience. The weather was perfect, the ship and its history fun and the crew very enthusiastic.
